ConversationIndex Outlook 2000

I'm trying to use Add-In Express to save emails to a SQL database and I wanted to use the ConversationIndex property to track email threads.

I thought that the ConversationIndex returned a hex string but I get binary data. Do you know of a work around for this?


THANKS!

Hi Doug.

I am afraid I don't quite understand the issue. Do you have any difficulties translating the data to another format?

Sergey,
Thanks for the quick reply.

Yes I do not understand how to translate the binary data to hex. Could you provide a sample?

Thanks,
Doug

Hi Doug,

The ConversationIndex property returns WideString like '01C6E90276DC4B431F15E9C1454783665F9F8DD4DD0D'. Please check your code or send it to me to check.

Dmitry,

Here's the code:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Imports System
Imports Outlook = Interop.Outlook
'Add-in Express Outlook Items Events Class
Public Class OutlookItemsEventsSentItems
Inherits AddinExpress.MSO.ADXOutlookItemsEvents

Public Sub New(ByVal ADXModule As AddinExpress.MSO.ADXAddinModule)
MyBase.New(ADXModule)

End Sub

Public Overrides Sub ProcessItemAdd(ByVal Item As Object)
Dim NewEmail As Outlook.MailItem = Item
MsgBox(NewEmail.ConversationIndex.ToString)
End Sub

Public Overrides Sub ProcessItemChange(ByVal Item As Object)
'TODO: Add some code
End Sub

Public Overrides Sub ProcessItemRemove()
'TODO: Add some code
End Sub

End Class

----------------------------------------------------------------------

Thanks,
Doug

Hi Doug.

The fact is that the ConversationIndex property returns the value of the System.String type. So, there is no need to use the ToString method to convert it to a text.
Also, it is not possible to convert the data to hex because such a long data type doesn't exist.

P.S. Please use the '.NET Products Forum' to ask me questions regarding the ADX .NET product.
